My little lovebug is 1 MONTH already?!? That was fast! I wanted to make him a chalkboard monthly milestone so I worked on it while he napped.

I bought the chalkboard at Hobby Lobby they had a 50% sale

so I got it for only $3.99 & just painted the edge white. I used Marvy Uchidas Bistro markers as well as regular chalk to decorate the board.

As for his outfit I wanted him to wear suspenders I searched EVERY store that carried childrens clothing by my house & nada! This onesie from Target was the best I could find so I just sewed him a matching bow tie instead.

Voila first month milestone pic! ;)

I also bought him cake but he was too passed out to eat it lololol So mommy & daddy ate it instead lol ;)

I just wanted to share some of my Favorite Make n Takes from the CHA show with you guys ;)

I've used this bag a bunch of times already that's why it looks a Lil dirty This bag was from the Plaid booth they released a brand new Martha Stewart Crafts multi surface acrylic paint and also some Stencils & brushes ;) This was so easy to make! Pretty much you just stippled the brushes with paint over the stencil & the paints are very pretty colors! I haven't unpacked yet but when I find the paints we got as samples I'll create something with it & share it w/ you guys ;) I loved all the colors & some of them are glittery & shimmery pretty much I'd like to collect them all ;) lol

This might be my most favorite make n take EVER actually it's a badge holder made with crystal beads but I'm actually thinking of taking it apart so I can create a necklace and/or matching bracelet I think I'll get more use of it in comparison to the badge holder. Although I did LOVE having a blingy badge holder ;) I do NOT know why I cannot remember this lady's booth name!

Shazam! Connie found my post & hooked it up with her info

Her companies name is Connie Crystal! <---- how easy is that to remember?

Then over at Westcott, they had super fun make n takes like 4 of them going on all at the same time! ;) I made this Velcro wallet (totally using it for my coupons lol) made out of 8 1/2 x 11 sheets of.....DUCT TAPE! How cool is that?!?! :) we also used regular duct tapes to make the pleats such a fun teen party favor craft & it only took less than 10 min to create ;)
